MG Hector Vs Tata Harrier

SUVs, in general, garner a lot of attention in our country. So when MG announced that they would start up sales in India with an SUV, things started heating up. Over the course of the last few months, we have been inundated with queries about the brand and the product. So to begin with let’s say that the MG brand is essentially a British brand which has been bought over by the Chinese SAIC brand. Now the product which they have chosen for India is basically the Baojun 530 which is sold in various countries across the world. Nomenclature of the vehicle also changes for the country to country and the Hector is also known as the Captiva in some countries. The Harrier is the first product where Tata Motors has extensively used expertise from Jaguar Land Rover. The concept version stole the show at the previous Auto Expo and ever since its launch the Harrier has been doing pretty well. But the question is whether it is better than the MG Hector. Time to find out.
